Thanks, guys. Yeah, I know it is defective; the dealer I bought it from is gone, and I was hoping someone would know how I might fix it myself rather than send it away.

Marantz AV-9000 processor loses its mind ...
My Marantz AV-9000 pre-pro loses all of it settings every time there is even the briefest power outage. Any chance of DIY fix for this?

Any thoughts or advice from anyone? Thanks!
